Hi Folks, We have an opening for an SI engineer at Oracle. Let me know if you or anyone you know is interested. Alan Hilton-Nickel Oracle Corp. Here is the job description... The Signal Integrity Engineer will be responsible for providing expertise for the Netra Systems and Networking System Hardware team. The preferred qualifications include expertise in the area of high speed circuit design and printed circuit board layout for state of the art Oracle server and networking products. Other preferred skills include circuit design input, board layout and simulation analysis for high speed data bus, clocking, decoupling and networking physical layer circuits. The Engineer will work closely with the product development and product support teams providing signal integrity design input, simulation and design validation testing. The Engineer will participate in design reviews, product problem escalations and architecture strategy meetings will be expected. Familiarity with high speed signal design strategies, simulation tools and printed circuit board design and tools is preferred. Routinely performs development tasks including circuit simulation , circuit design analysis, printed circuit board stackup and routing constraints and guidelines. Assists with review and recommendation to board development process and tools. Advises development teams on I/O cell specifications, circuit and bus topology, clocking strategies and solutions, decoupling and power distribution. The engineer should be proficient with board level reflection, crosstalk, ground bounce, bypassing techniques for reflection noise control. Should be proficient with HSPICE and IBIS model and field solver simulations. Experience with SpecctraQuest, Allegro and/or Verilog a plus. It is preferred the engineer have expertise with high speed digital oscilloscopes, Time Domain Reflectometers, spetrum analyzers, and other laboratory tools and techniques. It is preferred the candidate is proficient in English language written and oral communication abilities, as well as strong team building, team participation and interpersonal relationship skills.
